Using the integrated XAMPP backup system

Postby Nick Taylor » 27. January 2004 14:31

Hello,
I have tried to use the backup system in XAMPP (/opt/lampp/lampp backup) but it doesnt work. It says:
"Can't access database. Is MYSQL running? Added the MySQL root password to end of command line?"

MySQL is running and set up. What is the correct way/correct command line to use for lampp backup, please?

Thanks

Long lives XAMPP! :D

I have the same problem. :cry:
Maybe this "bug" (?) will be fixed soon since backup is still a beta.
I should mention that there is only one MSQL running on my system.
Maybe someone has a solution to fix this error :?:

Edit:
Oh I found something Kai wrote in another post. I'm a stupid one. I should have read the whole new posts before writing something :oops:

Ahhh... stupid me!!!!

You found a bug! ;)

Again... please take your favourite editor and edit /opt/lampp/lampp.

At line 400 you find:

/opt/lampp/share/lampp/backup

Please add a space and $2 to the end of this line. Like this:

/opt/lampp/share/lampp/backup $2

And now try again. Now it should work perfectly. :)

Repute, thanks for "finding" this bug!!!

Have to test this maybe the problem will be fixed then.

Now could you please edit /opt/lampp/share/lampp/backup?

At line 27 you find:

d=`echo "show databases" | /opt/lampp/bin/mysql -uroot $passwd 2>/dev/null`

Please remove the 2>/dev/null. It should look like:

d=`echo "show databases" | /opt/lampp/bin/mysql -uroot $passwd`

Save.

Now it works :D

No no no! No shame! ;)

The last change posted by MinJun is not necessary! It was only a change to make debugging possible and find the real bug.
